What transpired on last week's episode of Big Brother?

The Leftovers Alliance successfully eliminated one of the biggest threats, Ameerah Jones. They then decided to evict either Nicole or Alyssa from the house. HoH Monte put Alyssa and Indy up on the chopping block. However, the decisions had to be reconsidered after the Power of Veto (PoV) challenge on Big Brother.

Kyle and Daniel ended up winning the PoV, and while the former was skeptical of keeping his connection Alyssa on the block, his Festie Besite made the job much easier for him. Daniel felt like he and Nicole had enough votes to keep Alyssa safe from elimination if she was put on the block, which meant that her Festie Bestie Taylor would be the next to be eliminated from the competition.

As part of last-minute preparations, Daniel convinced Kyle and the duo to put Nicole and Taylor on the chopping block. The Big Brother contestants now had to vote to evict one of them from the competition. Throughout the episode, Nicole seemed confident that she would remain safe, and she even called the rest of the contestants "clowns" at one point.

What Daniel and Nicole didn't know, however, was that the Leftovers alliance was still active and plotting to save Taylor. Meanwhile, Nicole promised Indy, Alyssa, and Jasmine that she would protect them if they voted for Taylor's eviction.

Unaware of the alliance, Nicole placed her trust in Monte and lied about backdooring the contestants she had just made a promise to. Monte, however, caught on to the lie and revealed Nicole's plans to Jasmine. She then forwarded the message to Alyssa and Indy, who believed that Nicole was secretly plotting against them.

During the live eviction on this week's episode of Big Brother, viewers witnessed a historic blindside after everyone except Daniel voted to get Nicole eliminated. After a 9-1 majority vote, Nicole was evicted from the house.

It will be interesting to see how the houseguests fare in the challenges ahead of them as they struggle to keep themselves safe during the upcoming eviction.

The contestants in Season 24 of the hit reality competition were initially criticized for their microaggressions towards Taylor Hale. However, the latter has dominated recent episodes. Most of her targets, including Ameerah Jones and Nicole, have been eliminated from the competition. The Leftovers Alliance has also been one of the strongest alliances formed this season.
